Disclaimer:
As soon as I can group your frequently asked questions that I receive from you all. I will group them as fast as possible and then I will post them with my answers on them. As every individual has very different questions that are important to them, it may or can take a while before I can or will group the questions you have.
Who really gives the advises? And/or do I work alone?
The answer on both questions is: Yes!
The advices I give are based entirely on my knowledge and opinions I have. I cannot work with somebody else besides myself, because I have found that for many people (not to say everybody else) it is hard to say things that they really feel or think or it is very hard not to tell the truth because of the fear of hurting somebody with their (truthful) words.
Does anybody else read the letters and questions I receive?
The answer is: No!
I don't only see this as a profession. I see this as my calling and I take it very seriously. I do not see you as my patients. So even though I of coarse respect, as a psychologist the confidentiality I have with the people I speak to. I respect the courage of you, the ones that send me your stories or questions so much, that I will never break the trust of anyone that have given me their trust on telling me their stories or secrets.
What happens to the letters and questions I receive?
To moment I give my personal advice to you, I immediately discard/delete your letter or story. your letters, story or questions are just not mine to keep or to further use in the future. Your secret or story stays with me.
